Book description
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a
brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, activity
levels and the ability to carry out day-to-day tasks. Symptoms of
bipolar disorder are severe Â- they are different from the normal ups
and downs that everyone goes through from time to time. They can
result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance and
even suicide. But Bipolar can be treated and people with this illness
can lead full and productive lives.
